Verse
A# Gm
He put on his shirt carefully, making sure that the buttons matched up
D#
His sleeves were always too short
A# F
But at least it meant he could always see his watch
A#
And often he checked the time
Gm
And it would be stopped
D#
He always thought it was broken
A# F
But then he'd remember he had to wind it, oh
A# Gm
Though he knew some day he'd remember to wind it and it wouldn't work after all
D# A# F
Maybe that would happen on the exact day he didn't think it was broken
[Chorus]
A#
Isn't that the way it works
Gm
Isn't that the way it goes
D#
While the fox he lurks
A#
And while the rooster crows
F A#
Isn't that the way things are
Gm
The way the world ain't flat
D# A# F A#
But you can only run so far before you make it back
[Verse 2]
A# Gm
He could drink from the sink by craning his head far to one side
D# A#
The day he figured that out, one of the horses died
F A#
It was one of the twins that barely a week'd been alive
Gm
It was the one who could barely stand
D# A# F
We'd wrapped his legs with gauze and bandages from inside from one of the kitchen drawers
Gm
We called him stretch
D#
Cuz he was so skinny and tall
A#
Momma said both twins rarely live with horses
F
We was lucky to have one livin at all
A# Gm
And me and my momma slept in the stall next to them in the bed of a pickup
D# A# F
All us kids piled in
A#
I remember the momma horse lickin and cleaning up her newborn babies
Gm
She was working so hard (she was working so hard)
D# A#
She was working so hard (she was working so hard)
F Gm
She was working so hard
D#
She was working so hard
A#
She was working so hard
F
She was working so hard
[Chorus]
A#
Isn't that the way it works
Gm
Isn't that the way it goes
D#
While the fox he lurks
A#
And while the rooster crows
F A#
Isn't that the way things are
Gm
The way the world ain't flat
D# A# F
But you can only run so far before you make it back
Gm
Isn't that the way it works
D#
Isn't that the way it goes
A#
While the fox he lurks
F
And while the rooster crows
Gm
Isn't that the way things are
D#
The way the world ain't flat
A# F
You can only run so far before you make it back
Gm
You can only run so far
D#
You can only run so far
A# F A# D# A# F A#
Before you make it, before you make it back
